Although this is the ideal family hotel, I am always perturbed when I have a receipt for $120 from booking.com and they charge me $147 unabashedly - referring me to deal with booking.com. Had I not paid the $147, I could have lost the entire $120 - so I was in a conundrum. More

We have been staying here on vacation for 10 years! Clean, friendly, free ice cream every afternoon!! Our whole family loves it! More

I spent two nights in this hotel the week after New Year's. The check-in service was great, but I was a little disappointed in the "aged" appearance of the room considering the rate I was paying. The Gulf and beach view that I had reserved were fantastic, but I was annoyed by the heating system both nights of my stay.... More

After having the experience from hell at another hotel in Destin, we abruptly checked into the Holiday Inn - great hotel. I love the location, it really is right on the beach - we were there for New Years Eve and really like this hotel. It is more like a resort than hotel, so with that said you get the... More

From the arrival we were greeted very, very nicely. At first I thought I had the wrong address. The staff is very friendly and nice. You don't feel that this is a chain hotel. The rooms are very clean, and although the walls are pretty thin, over all they deserve a 9 out of 10. The AC is a decent... More

The location is decent and the view of the ocean is nice. The bedding is the only element that feels modern though. The whole place has a tired, worn feeling to it--it's in need of some updating. There are some great amenities if you're traveling w/kids: free popcorn & ice cream in the afternoons & free Red Box rentals, plus... More

I am a hotel owner (not related to Holiday Inn) and surely see things that most don't see. - Front Staff gets a 10: Stephanie, Bill, Kathy, and Martha, Martha, Martha. - Beach gets a 10: Just out the back of the hotel. Sprayers for the sand on your feet. Because it was Thanksgiving, maybe the guy who picks up... More

First stay there...got a group rate for a wedding party, so not too pricey. Stephanie at the front desk is the MASTER of anticipating the needs of her guests! Very friendly staff to include the bartender for our friends wedding ( I apologize, i don't remember her name)! We stayed on the 8th floor, my request, and although the view... More

Every 6 months we put on a girls' weekend and rent out a meeting room in a hotel to scrapbook the whole weekend. We found this hotel after our other normal hotel wanted to overcharge us for their facilities. Kathy, the group event coordinator was nothing by wonderful to work with to ensure our stay here was flawless....we rented the... More
